| UniProt Protein Function: | DNCLI2: Acts as one of several non-catalytic accessory components of the cytoplasmic dynein 1 complex that are thought to be involved in linking dynein to cargos and to adapter proteins that regulate dynein function. Cytoplasmic dynein 1 acts as a motor for the intracellular retrograde motility of vesicles and organelles along microtubules. May play a role in binding dynein to membranous organelles or chromosomes. Belongs to the dynein light intermediate chain family. Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 16q22.1 Cellular Component: centrosome; microtubule; membrane; cytoplasmic dynein complex; cytosol Molecular Function: microtubule motor activity; ATP binding Biological Process: centrosome localization; transport; metabolic process; antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class II; microtubule cytoskeleton organization and biogenesis; microtubule-based movement |
